Getting to know your phone

Eject button aperture
2 Position the micro SIM card into the tray. (as shown above image)
3 Insert the micro SIM card tray.
NOTE: Turn the phone off before inserting or removing the SIM card.
Warning! Always be careful. The ejection tool is a very sharp.
17
Charging your phone
1 Connect the wall adapter and USB cable as shown below. The USB symbol
on the USB cable should face toward you.
2 Plug the USB cable (as shown below) into the phone's Charger/Accessory
Port. Make sure the USB symbol is facing upwards.
Always unplug the charger from the wall socket after the phone is fully charged
to save unnecessary power consumption of the charger.
NOTE:
The battery must be fully charged initially to improve battery lifetime.
Your phone has an internal antenna. Be careful not to scratch or damage
this rear area, as that will cause loss of performance.
When the battery becomes fully discharged and you connect the phone to
a charger, the Notification LED lights will blink. This is normal operation for
a completely discharged battery to prevent overflowing current because the
phone is designed to provide reasonable protection against damage to the
battery. Once the battery has enough charge, the screen will turn on and
display a battery image.
18
Getting to know your phone
Warning!
Use only LG-approved chargers, batteries and cables. When using
unapproved chargers or cables, it may cause battery slow charging the
message regarding charging delay. Or, unapproved chargers or cables can
cause the battery to explode or damage the device, which are not covered
by the warranty.
Charging may be interrupted when you use a USB hub, which is not
retained rated voltage.
NOTE: Non-Removable Battery
Your phone has an internal, rechargeable battery that should be replaced
only by LG or an authorized LG repair center. You should never try to open
or take apart this phone yourself. Opening the phone can cause damage
that will void your warranty.
Switching between and exiting applications
Multi-tasking is easy with Android because open applications keep running
even when you open another application. There is no need to quit an
application before opening another. Use and switch among several open
applications. Android manages each application, stopping and starting
them as needed, to ensure that idle applications don’t consume resources
unnecessarily.
Switching between applications
- Touch and hold the Home Key
. A list of recently used applications will be
displayed. Then tap the application you want to access.
- To remove an application from the list, swipe the app preview to the left or
right.
